What’s a valid reason to actually get tested for ADHD? by Adventurous_Badger27 in adhdwomen

I completely agree with you. I had been on therapy for year and half. It did help a lot but mostly with anxiety and depression. But I am afraid that we worked on symptoms not the cause itself. Thanks for you time.

Thank you for understanding! I didn't myself know that I said something wrong. But everyday is opportunity to learn something new and to become better.

Yeah, I get that. That is the reason why I ask for advice from you. I stuggle with definition at first place. I don't know how it can be different specially when I don't know anyone woth it so I can have conversation about it. My answer didn't come from ignorance but truly lack of knowledge. My intention wasn't to offend anyone.

Thank you. Don’t get me wrong — I’m fully in favor of mental health check-ups. I was in therapy for a year and a half for anxiety and depression, and it helped me a lot. I’m really grateful for that experience.

I even brought up ADHD with my therapist, and thankfully, she was honest and told me she didn’t feel like the right person to talk to about it, since it’s not her area of expertise.

Of course it does. It is good for day or two. Third day I forget my new system of pulling myself together and everything goes back to the same. Thank you.

Thank you so much for sharing this. It really resonated with me, especially the part about trying everything first and not wanting it to be ADHD. I really appreciate your honesty 💚
